      Dig my R1. It’s great on our group rides with everyone in contact with each other. I wanna speak on their customer service. My radio malfunctioned on a ride and was stuck in busy mode. I emailed Rugged , they asked me to send it to them. I had a brand new radio on my doorstep within a week. Excellent customer service. Thanks Rugged

      Rugged R1 - Business Band Two Way Handheld Radio - Digital and Analog
      One of the biggest advantages of the R1 is its intuitive interface. Unlike some business band handhelds that require a steep learning curve, the R1 is simple to program and operate, even for those who aren't tech-savvy. The large, easy-to-read display and straightforward controls make it quick to adjust settings on the fly.

      They are a great product. I do feel like the screen is a little delicate and have gone out twice. But the warranty is amazing.

      What can I say the rugged R1 handheld kept the team in communication while running around the lake bed and hammer town during KOH. And the extended battery lasted for days with constant use. Rugged products never Let me down.
